Re: Air attacks on civilian aircraft

I'm not quite sure, but wasn't a Finnish airliner shot down by two Soviet DB-3 bombers after the ceasefire in 1940 ?

There were also several cases of airliners shot at by Japanese fighters in the Far East prior to 1941. You may find the details in Chris Shores et al., "Bloody Shambles - vol. 1".
